KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus vs. Splunk SOAR

I have been able to create customized simulated phishing campaigns that are really testing our users ability to "spot the fake." That coupled with the training campaigns that are included make it much more likely that our users will be better prepared to protect our organization by being able to recognize common industry threats, and brings awareness to less common threats that are out there. I love that they have a shared folder full of relevant, recent real-world scams that we can choose from to train our user base.

Phish ER has reduced the time my team and I spend on reported emails by over 80%. With the volume of emails reported and a small team this is a must have.

As we already have a lot of clients being catered with Splunk SOAR and because Splunk SOAR is robust and efficient, we are already using it, and we have understood the product to a certain extent, I feel we are personally more enticed to use and scale it to a lot of business.

The configuration is a bit complicated, but easy once you get the hang of it. Once configured, it is easy to manage our malicious emails that are reported by our staff.

Not immediate: it always requires a training.

We are able to automate almost every one of our use cases, even our threat-hunting, and threat intel procedures. We have 20+ playbooks and cover almost everything, even searching logs into Splunk, looking into TIP and external systems, enrichment, and collecting evidence for analysts; it can perform concurrent playbooks running.

I never followed an in-person training, I gave my evaluation based on the online training

I followed training for Phantom admins and it opened a world for me

Work with support or rep for some basic steps, the rest is pretty straight foward.

I already said that the main key insight is the knowledge of Phantom, so a detailed training for all the people involeved.

KnowBe4 PhishER has a lot of features that other companied does not have. Its AI capability, integration with VirusTotal, PhishRIP and PhishFlip features make it totally different from other solutions. Its Phish Alert Button directly installed on users Outlook without affecting them and the reporting technique is very simple, just clicking on the Phish Alert Button and the email will be directly reported to the KnowBe4 PhishER dashboard. KnowBe4 PhishER dashboard is a very good example of centralized dashboard where you can find all things related to that reported email.

Splunk Phantom integrates well with Splunk ES and has many integrations. One thing that I liked about XSOAR as compared to Phantom is that it has an "app-store" where you can download not only app integrations (similar to Phantom) but Playbooks and dashboards as well.

Incentivized

me and the customers I encountered found it flexible and scalable

Incentivized

• It has greatly increased phishing / security awareness by our staff by having a designated button & process for reporting phishing emails
• It provides greater protection through the ability to delete emails from multiple recipients even if not all of them reported the email
• It saves time for me to have to evaluate whether or not an email reported is a real threat through the ML/AI/VirusTotal scores

Incentivized

• The playbooks are valuable. They are the core component. Being able to implement and build a code process to work through and scale out what we want to do is valuable
• Before its use, analyzing each email would take at least 15 to 20 minutes, with some complex cases taking up to 30 minutes...With the automation provided by Splunk Phantom, we could significantly reduce the amount of time and human effort required to complete this task
